Big rain front just getting here......ran up to do Hoss and put him in under cover....swung down by the shop to check the mail.....had a 910 gasket set sent to me by a member here as I had sent him some 90 gaskets and got the 910E set for basically for the price of the enclosed crank seals and sent me the rest.....Exxcellent!!! Needed another case gasket!! I was opening the package and a friend showed up with a 359 Hooski that I fixed for him 2-3 yrs ago....it had that carb/partition/clamp issue and this was before TreeMonkey figgered out how to fix the walbro so it got the fix at the time...the Zama...and the rest of the intake system...he has been very pleased with the saw ever since.....well...until today...He set it on the bench and said "the clutch just fell off it"....."Ooooo... that sounds like a broken crankshaft" I said......sure enough...snapped off right at the inner end of the threads......bummer....nice running saw....but the chain don't go round any more....

Wow! How did that happen?!?

 

[Cantdog]

He said he was just cutting brush and it just fell apart......LOL!!!

 

[z71mike]

Liar! Haha

 

[Cantdog]

Liar! Haha

I suspect he isn't.....as far as he knows anyway.....cutting brush can create a lot of small shocks to the chain/clutch and being self tightening the clutch could easily get over tightened I suppose....but who knows....rim looked like it was the same one I replaced way back then.....pretty beat/worn now....he would not attempt to change it out himself....so I don't think anyone's been in there....

Rain coming this way also, could start pouring any time and there is supposed to be some winds accompanying the rain.

 

[z71mike]

Ours is finally slowing down. After 2 inches in 8 hours. Yikes.

Got a couple small branches down from the wind, but nothing major. It did drop from a high of 70 today down to 40 right now, high 20s overnight. Nuts.

Ok so it's been snowing now for an hour. Didn't see that coming. Sticking to the grass and cars, but the streets are just icing over. Gonna be a fun commute in the morning.

 

[pioneerguy600]

Too quiet even for tumble weeds to be blowing through here!!

As in none, dang that`s cold fer this time of year. Just 12C here currently but expected to drop to 8C during the storm. Likely to get colder after the storm passes if the high pressure system sneaks in after the Low passes by, happens up here most times right after a storm passes through.
